The 10k rebuild does not need to be applied every 3-4 months as previosly stated. A cp machine that is running 100% of the time on a 24/7 basis will tack up 10k hours in 12.4 months. Now we all know that this is impossible due to parts shortages, pro

Why not.. You are always welcome. Firstly what I feel multicamera system (Top and Angled) AOI is always better than single Top camera system in terms of defect coverage. Secondly read On the fly inspection is much better than STOP and Go techniques.

Found problem many years ago by chemical extraction and IR analysis, produces alarming amounts of plasticizer from under cured or incorrect mix of hardener to liquid photoimageable solder resist. Problems this causes are endless and many things blame
